Fenwal Detect-A-Fire Monitoring devices

Fenwal Detect-A-Fire (Horizontal Mounting) Fire Protection

Fenwal Horizontal Fire detectors (Detect-A-Fires) are designed for locations where appearance is a factor. The attractive, functional design lends physical protection of the unit while making it suitable for commercial, industrial, mercantile and public buildings, institutions and ships in non-hazardous locations (those classified as "ordinary" under the National Electric Code). Flush mounted units are designed to fit standard 4" octagonal electrical boxes and surface mounting units are designed to mount directly on ceilings or on 4" electrical junction boxes.

DETECT-A-FIRE® Units are precision temperature sensors. They must be mounted in an area (normally a ceiling) so that: 1. The detector spacing complies with both system requirements and requirements of the agency having local jurisdiction. 2. The thermal air path to the shell is not obstructed.

Fenwal Temperature Control

Electromechanical Temperature Controls

Fenwal controls manufactures mechanical temperature control devices. The switches are bi-metal switches that use expansion and contraction to cause the switching. This type of mechanism can be extremely accurate but lacks in displaying the temperature. In todays computerized/automated world this type of control tends to be used for over temperature control or alarm as opposed to the process control point.

The FENWAL THERMOSWITCH was invented in the 1930's to control fish tanks, irons and other simple applications, but it was soon realied that they could be used for industrial, commercial and process applications. They're durability, reliability and accuracy are the strong points for THERMOSWITCHES.

THERMOSWITCH® Temperature Controllers are tubular devices featuring an outer shell made of high-expanding metal and internal struts made of low-expanding metal, with a pair of electrical contacts between them.

When the temperature of the media being measured changes, a corresponding change in the spacing of the contacts provides instant on/of

f control with a small differential, resulting in +1°F precision, depending upon the application.

Series 17000, 18000

PROBE TYPE, SPDT

Series Features:

Fast Response - outer shell is the active sensing member

Precise Control - substantially reduces overshoot & undershoot

Extreme Sensitivity - slow make and break contacts, resolution 0.1°F (0.05°C)

Vibration Resistance - best possible control under difficult physical conditions

Cost-effective, Compact, Simple-In-Operation

Numerous Mounting Configurations

Specifications:

Overlapping ranges from -100°F to 600°F (-73° to 316°C)

1200 Watt resistive load at 120/240 VAC

5/8" diameter THERMOSWITCH® models available

Agency Approvals:

UL and CSA

Applications:

Food service equipment

Packaging equipment

Laminating presses

Agricultural equipment

Fenwal's snap action liquid filled THERMOSWITCH® controllers, the expandable liquid surrounding the bellows is in direct contact with the temperature sensing outer shell providing a fast response for accurate temperature sensing.  The 20000 series switches are no longer available.  Sords Electric has a few left, email us with a part number.

Series 20000, 21000, 22000

PROBE TYPE, SPST

Series Features:

Individually field adjustable micro-switches

One or two micro-switches

Specifications:

Overlapping ranges from 0° to 300°F (-18° to 148°C)

Ratings to 15 A at 120/250 VAC

Factory preset temperatures available

NEMA 4 enclosure available

Agency Approvals:

UL, CSA

Applications:

Food service equipment

Medical vaporizers

Commercial dishwashers

Based on the differential expansion of metals principle, an increase in temperature causes the stainless steel outer case of the Surface Mounting THERMOSWITCH® controller to expand at a greater rate than the internal bridge assembly.

Because the case is in direct contact with the heated surface, a temperature change is sensed almost instantaneously.

Series 30000

SURFACE MOUNT TYPE, SPST

Series Features:

Fully adjustable

Narrow temperature differential

SCR Power Controllers by WATLOW

Watlow POWER SERIES Controllers

Microprocessor-Based SCR Power Controller Designed for Application Flexibility
For over thirty years Watlow® has been manufacturing solid state power controllers. Watlow's new POWER SERIES represents the latest in SCR power controller technology. This microprocessor-based product offers features and application flexibility unmatched by any other SCR power controller on the market today.

Capabilities include single-phase and three-phase models from 65 to 250 amps. Field configurable phase angle or zero-cross firing improves application flexibility on site where you need it. 50/60Hz independent operation means you can operate almost everywhere in the world without special calibration considerations. Serial communications utilizing Modbus® protocol allow for remote control setup, and monitoring of load status from a nearby computer station or control room.
On-board semiconductor fusing improves reliability by protecting the SCRs from heater short circuits. Plus, on-board heater bakeout and control diagnostics can help eliminate initial start up problems. All this in a touch-safe package that can be quickly and easily mounted in your control cabinet.
Agency approvals ensure a product that meets world safety and operational standards.
